28 Years Later Review

Review of 28 Years Later (2025) by screenqueeen: 👎 2/5

i'm sorry, this coming from the TRAINSPOTTING guy? you shove these platitudes and shout telegraphs in my face at the very start and expect me to be wowed by some kind of worldbuilding and meditations on life and death that treats itself as if they haven't been uttered before, at least not so bluntly and without nuance. you could do something with how brutally honest this tries to be about human life but it is bogged down with so much inflated on-the-spot scripture in a two-thirds pontification that never wants to hear an answer other than to be heard and accepted without criticism of its narrow scope. the more 28 movies i've seen boyle do the shallower they become, in contrast to the vastness and depth of the moving parts he intends to play with.
